Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

I think the mercury was used in the fabric glue to stiffen it...Can't remember for sure so don't quote me on that...lol

So, I'd like to take a poll. On Facebook, if someone is selling a bird that is obviously not what they say it is - do you:
A. Say something and risk the stupid backlash
B. Just scroll on by - ignorance is bliss

Scroll on by--but then, I'm notoriously conflict-avoidant

To the point that, quite a few years ago, during a controversy on my original online home, my stating that a new member was most definitely NOT a previously multiply-banned person, led to my birthday twin (Ha, I won the ponytail-measuring contest this summer! Totally unrelated, sorry...) declaring that, if I said it, it must be so. Freaked me out--I mean, I knew I was right, because I'd spoken to the newbie and the banned person on the phone before, and they were on separate continents, but what if I'd been wrong, with that much faith placed in me?

The larger breeds, since they have larger eggs, tend to lose moisture faster than smaller breeds and smaller eggs.

Good to know! I would've assumed the exact opposite, 'cause of surface area/volume ratios... Not that I'm planning on hatching geese anytime soon.

It helped with the felting process

I drove poor Pyxis and Ravyn batty when Vixyn was hatching... Worried me to death, and now I have a seriously spoiled house goose..

I'm assuming they don't use mercury anymore.

You know what "they" say about assuming, pert.
